wprintf doesnot print Chinese character

When I include the following line of code in the main method,

--------------------------------
wprintf(L"China,in Chinese,is %s",L"中国");
--------------------------------
it compiles.
At run time,it prints: "China,in Chinese,is ".
But,I expect it prints : "China,in Chinese,is 中国".

When I compile and run the code in another computer,
it prints:"China,in Chinese,is 中国".
I cannot find any difference between IDE settings and source code.

I use WindowXP,visual studio .net 2003.

Is there anything I should check?

Thanks!

I am using Window XP professional.
All other softwares behave normally,they can show Chinese character correctly.

I have no idea what is wrong.

Thanks.
Sorry.I still have no idea what is wrong.

try by using MultiByteToWideChar function to convert to unicode and on both the machine, check the value of first parameter(which is code page).

I think u might get the difference there.If the value of code page is different, than the value of codepage on m/c , on which it is not giving the correct output is wrong.

It is not clear whether the program is running at the command prompt (as a console application, or in a DOS box), or if is running as a Win32 application. In the first case, you should check the codepage. And in both case, you should check if correct font files are installed on the computers.

Sorry,I am new to cpp.And the method MultiByteToWideChar is too complicated for me.Maybe I can try it after I am more familar with cpp.

Thanks anyway!

Hi

To Support Unicode, two things need to be done. In VC++, go to the project menu and choose settings. On the C++ tab chose the category General and add the Preprocessor Definition for _UNICODE *don’t forget the underscore* and REMOVE the _MBCS (multi-byte character set) definition. Second, under the Link tab choose the category Output and set the entry point symbol to wWinMainCRTStartup.
This is not a requirement to display in multi-lingual applications because by default _MBCS is defined.

plz, give the rank.

Huhu.
I define _UNICODE,and the problem is still there.
If I set the entry to to 'wWinMainCRTStartup',the compiler say it doesnot konw '_wWinMain@16'.

Besides,in my code,I use unicode character(L"...") and unicode print method(wprintf) explicitly,I donot think preprocessor is to be blamed.

Oo,maybe ...I have no idea.

I solved it.

In Control Panel->Regional and Language Options->Regional Options ,change setting to 'English(United States)'.

I donot know why.

Thanks for your help!

it's not solution.... problem is locale settings in CRT...

use:
setlocale(LC_ALL, ".OCP");

perhaps set chinnese code page instead of ".OCP" (oem code page)
